Tis The Season.

Hello Ladies and Gents Tis the Season to SAVE MONEY. As African Americans we tend to spend our  last on Christmas gifts to please our loved ones each year. I did a study on how much the average household will spend on Christmas gifts for one day out the year. The meaning for Christmas has become so commercialized for individuals. This time of year is extremely stressful for single parents, divorces, and one income households.

For the average American, $770 is no small sum. But that’s how much they’ll each shell out on average for Christmas gifts this year.

That’s roughly the equivalent of three iPhone 5 smartphones, with tax.
Consumers have boosted their holiday spending each year since 2009, when the price tag on Christmas gift-giving plunged to a two-decade low of $616 per person. The $866 figure from 2008 capped a six-year rise, according to an annual poll of more than 1,000 adults by Gallup.

Be mindful one day after Christmas everything is half off the original price. Savings 1 days after you spent all your money on unnecessary items your children will probably play with 1 time. Challenge yourself to economical freedom this year. Think SAVE SAVE SAVE.
